Grand Canyon Aerial Tour with Westwind Air Service in Phoenix

Flying over the desert landscape surrounding Phoenix, Arizona, offers a perspective few get to experience—the sweeping grandeur of the Grand Canyon. Westwind Air Service’s Grand Canyon Aerial Tour provides an unrivaled vantage point, whisking passengers from the bustling city to the sprawling natural wonder via a scenic flight.
